Truck

Well, this one's not necessarily spiritual, but then again it is because we can't separate God from anything that happens.  I really just need to vent for a minute.  I've spent quite a bit of money on my truck over the past month or so.  I got four needed tires at the best possible deal I could find.  Then I needed breaks, so I got that scheduled only to find out that I needed breaks, rotors, and 2 front calipers.

Then today I took the truck in because I needed a simple alignment.  I didn't want to ruin my new tires by making them wear unevenly.  So, I take it in and plan on it being a quick fix.  I sit there and wait just reading a book.  An hour goes by and then somebody calls me back to "look" at something.  There's a bearing going out, it needs some new rod, and then I'll get the alignment.

All in all, over the past month or month and a half, I will have spent about $2,250 on a truck that I just bought last summer.  Not to mention, when I first got it, within two weeks it needed $1,000 fix.  This is just ridiculous.
